    @Kingfish:

    I have a Nakayama that gives great edges. I recently discovered that using a Cr2O3 pasted strop after the Nakayama improves the edge. Not so much increased sharpness but smoothness. A smoother edge feels sharper, at least to me.

    I suggest you try chromox. before spending a fortune on another Nakayama.

    All this confusion about natural stones is exactly why I do all my finishing on diamond film I make a mirror out of an edge in short time with diamond films, and it's uber consistent. Did I mention it's cheap, probably cause it wasn't hauled from a mountain top in Japan lol. I'd love some of these JNAT's but I'm poo ( I cant even afford the R)
